Alaves will host Burgos at the Estadio de Mendizorroza in the Segunda Division on Saturday (January 7). The hosts were relegated from La Liga last season after finishing bottom of the standings. Manager Luis García has been tasked with immediate promotion back to the top flight. He has not fared poorly thus far, with his team sitting fifth in the points table on 34 points after 21 games.
With half of the campaign gone, Babazorros are in the promotion playoffs zone, but García is eyeing the automatic spots. Claiming maximum points at home against Burgos will move them closer to that goal.
The visitors, meanwhile, are a place and point above Alaves in the standings (fourth on 35 points) and are eyeing their first promotion to La Liga. However, a lot of games remain, and their recent dip in form is concerning.
Burgaleses are winless in their last five games across competitions. Their last win was against Ponferradina in a league contest on December 5. Burgos, though, can draw inspiration from the reverse fixture, beating Alaves 3-0 in October. The hosts will likely look to avenge that defeat.

Alavés vs Burgos Team News
Alaves:- Mendizorrotza Stadium has seen some great games by the local team but Alaves’ players should really step it up a notch if they want to experience La Liga next season. Sure, fifth place in the league is an okay feat but the players lost four consecutive games and if they continue with this lackluster display, we might just see Alaves in Segunda next year as well.
Burgos:- Contrary to popular belief, it’s Burgos who are ahead of Alaves in the ranking as the team has achieved one point more. With nine victories, eight draws, and four losses in 21 league games, we can only make guesses about how well this team will perform for the rest of the season.

Alavés vs Burgos Betting Trends
Not long ago, Alaves were a La Liga side and they were doing quite well for a brief period of time. Yes, the reality these days is different as the team struggles to get back to La Liga but with 5th place already cemented, we believe it’s time for coach Luis Garcia’s boys to put an end to their hellish 4-game winless run.
